    I’m more miffed that they nerfed Rogue’s butt and made it almost pancake-flat for the sake of trying to keep everything E-rated. Original vs reboot for comparison.

    If you’re rebooting a 90’s Marvel animated series and trying to make it as authentic as possible to the original art style and source material, maybe sanitising female body proportions to appear more modest whilst keeping every guy jacked isn’t the way you go about things? But then again, maybe the House of Mouse should’ve realized that the core demographic who read comic books are vastly different to those who consume non-acquisition Disney media and that if you put the two audiences on a Venn diagram, you’d damn near get two perfect circles.

    At least the Morph changes make thematic sense and people getting upset over them being non-binary are the same kind of snowflakes who flipped out because Starfield asked them to select their character’s pronouns - a choice that took all of about zero to three button presses to select on the character creation menu and also makes thematic sense for a game set hundreds of years in humanity’s future.

      I’m more miffed

      I’m more miffed that anyone gave enough shits about a cartoon depiction of an ass in a childs cartoon show to have spent the time even getting miffed about it.

        1. When I may miffed, it’s more like minorly inconvenienced,

        2. Wasn’t aware that the show was produced specifically for Fox Kids, probably because Fox Kids/Jetix in the UK was known moreso for hours of Power Rangers reruns and the occasional good show. That changes things slightly.

        3. Wasn’t the reboot commissioned specifically with fans of the original 1992-97 show in mind? It feels weird to do this when the core demographic that has nostalgia for the original animated series is likely in their thirties now.

          OR

          Get this.

          It’s completely irrelevant and spending that much time and mental effort on it is not a thing that warrants as much focus and attention you’ve put on it.

          this focus on her ass is bizarre and borderline creepy.
